Ο Mozilla Firefox has been a program for far too long tourς που πρόσεχε πάρα πολύ την προστασία της ιδιωτικής σας ζωής. Ενώ ο δημοφιλής Chrome browser of Google collects all kinds information from your browsing to serve relevant ads, Firefox never did.
But with the latest version of Firefox 60, you will start seeing "advertising stories" on the "New Tab" page.
In the past, we have mentioned that we are the product. The Mozilla Foundation could not miss the party.
Why is it a problem? The movement of the foundation may disappoint a few users who choose Firefox for their daily tour. Of course, Mozilla tries to gold the pill by saying that the analytics will not be sold to advertising companies.
Of course, we should mention that the Mozilla foundation does not consider that it will display advertisements but sponsored content, or will accept sponsorships for displaying content... Yes it is a positive reflection of the term ad which sounds very bad on marketing.
So at least supports Nate Weiner, founder and CEO of Pocket. Mozilla took over the company at the beginning of last year.
Firefox introduced "suggested content" in 2015. The feature uses your browsing history to suggest sponsored content you might find interesting. Since the Mozilla Foundation purchased Pocket Service read-it-later in 2017, the service has been integrated into the browser.
Ωστόσο, στον Firefox 60, η λειτουργία του Pocket επεκτείνει το "προτεινόμενο περιεχόμενο" συμπεριλαμβάνοντας και "περιεχόμενο που διαφημίζεται" (sponsored content). Αν δεν σαν ενδιαφέρει λοιπόν το νέο χαρακτηριστικό, παρακάτω θα δούμε πως μπορείτε να το απενεργοποιήσετε.
Open a new tab in Firefox and click on the Gear in the top right corner. In the area Recommended by Pocket, uncheck in Show Sponsored Stories.
If you do not see the setting, you have not upgraded on Firefox 60, or if you are on Linux you have already disabled data collection from your browser settings.
Why does Mozilla show ads?
Για μεγαλύτερα κέρδη φυσικά... Η εταιρεία έχει διατυπώσει με σαφήνεια το σκεπτικό αυτής της αλλαγής. Μπορείτε να δdownload the official publication for full details. You will find that the company promises not to send user data to other advertising companies and will not collect them on company servers.
In Mozilla, we take your personal data very seriously. The Activity Stream page will not collect data that could help in your personal identification. We will not broadcast what you are browsing, searches you make or your private settings. Activity Stream will not send cookies and will use Layer Security ransport technology to securely transmit data to Mozilla servers.
Το ίδρυμα αναφέρει ότι τα δεδομένα που συλλέγονται θα διατηρούνται στους διακομιστές τους με ασφάλεια για 30 ημέρες σε ανώνυμη και συγκεντρωτική μορφή. Στη συνέχεια, θα διαγράφονται οριστικά...
